This bug only affect 2.19.91, it works as expected with 2.18.6. When browsing plus.google.com, if you open an external link, it open it in a new webview (related to plus.google.com one). If you close this new webview, it makes related webview blank. Can reproduce the issue with Epiphany. Here a video showing the issue: https://youtu.be/mRSxUz7JYZY
Sounds like the web process dying too soon, not realizing that it has multiple web views.
I can't reproduce this, neither with ephy nor MiniBrowser using 2.19.92
(In reply to Carlos Garcia Campos from comment #2) > I can't reproduce this, neither with ephy nor MiniBrowser using 2.19.92 I hadn't tried, but yes, I can't reproduce it either. Maybe it only happens in eolie?
See initial bug report: "Can reproduce the issue with Epiphany." Here bug in epiphany: https://youtu.be/dy9cc31DEUU Tested with 2.19.92
Does not happend on Fedora. ArchLinux bug...
Could it be related to mesa version?
ArchLinux: mesa 17.3.6-1 Fedora: mesa-libGL-18.0.0-0.3.rc4
Ok, happen on Fedora 28 now. Some testing here, it happens when destroying the webview created with new_with_related_view()
Seems to be a display issue, because if related webpage is playing a video, video continue playing.
Still can't reproduce... are you using a special process mode? (shared secondary process, or with a process count limit?)
It happens in Epiphany too so not related to Eolie.
I think this will be fixed by the patch attached to bug #184040, so marking as duplicate. Feel free to reopen if it' still happens after applying that patch. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 184040 ***
